Welcome from Dean Kenner

Our mission is clear: We educate aspiring health professionals to become leaders, energized to change the health care landscape. Our students work closely with faculty and with local health care partners to build a solid foundation of knowledge and practical skill. Challenged to question deeply, think globally, and practice ethically, our students immerse themselves in the issues of today to help shape them tomorrow. I invite you to share this journey.

Sophomore nursing students received white lab coats from Nursing, Health, and Exercise Science faculty in the fifth annual White Coat Ceremony in Mayo Hall on Wednesday, Nov. 13. This marks the students’ first major professional milestone in their careers.
